How to Make Delicious Ginger Wine for Christmas in 12 days /Also non-alcoholic wine / Easy recipe

[@PataCake]

IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS/SUGGESTIONS: If the fermentation process takes place correctly, the homemade wine will be great and have a good enough shelf life. But sometimes, since most home brewers are not professionals, the fermentation may remain incomplete and continue even after bottling and storage. Meaning there could be a build-up of carbon dioxide inside the wine bottles. So, 3 precautions to take to be on the safe side: 1.) Don't fill the wine bottles above the shoulder, so that there is enough space above the level of the wine. 2.) For the first week in the fridge, keep the cap of the bottles slightly loose. Don't screw them on tight. 3.) Try to finish the wine in 3 to 4 weeks as we're not adding any preservatives to it. If not stored properly it has the risk of going bad. 4) The wine will keep settling and getting clearer even in the fridge. The longer you store the wine, the greater the sediment that could settle at the bottom. So after 2 weeks or so, you could siphon it or carefully transfer it to another bottle and discard the sediment at the bottom. This is an optional step.

[@rosemariedsouza4652]

I appreciate your step by step details. Nice recipe will try your recipe. I boil the ingredients with Kashmiri chillies, strain when Luke warm, add yeast and lemon juice and keep for fermentation. I make a big batch, accidentally one remained in the cupboard, lasts for upto 5 yrs.

[@PataCake]

Thanks, Rosemarie, for your appreciation, and for sharing your recipe. As long as the fermentation process has taken place properly and to completion, the wine will stay good for a long time. But for safety sake, I suggest consuming home made wine within a couple of weeks or so, because if the fermentation didn't take place properly during the fermentation period, and continues even after storage then there could be a build up of carbon dioxide gas inside the bottle, and this could lead to an accident.

[@valeriefernandes6933]

Made the wine exactly according to your recipe and it came out amazing. Just that my family wants it to be a bit more sweeter. Is there a way I can sweeten it now? Please let me know

[@PataCake]

Valerie, you shouldn't add any extra sugar now after the wine has already started fermenting. Any adjustment for taste needs to be done before adding the yeast. For me, the sweetness is perfect. But if your family wants a sweeter wine, I suggest you make some sugar syrup and cool it. And then add a few teaspoons of it to each glass before pouring out the wine. Don't be alarmed if the wine starts giving off gas bubbles. That would be the chemical reaction kicking in because of the late addition of sugar.

Hi Veena, will this be good for diabetics

[@PataCake]

No sorry, Lallie. Sugar is an essential ingredient in any wine recipe. A lot of it gets converted into alcohol by the yeast. But some free sugar still remains in the wine.

[@lobsterattack4323]

As a first timer would it be easier to use instant yeast. Is the final result the same. Kindly advise.

[@PataCake]

Any yeast will do. In the video I have used instant yeast. But just to show those who are not familiar with blooming the yeast, the method of doing this I have shown the activation. But instant yeast does not need activation and can be added directly into the ceramic Jar.

[@munnitrivedi5001]

Mam we can age this wine? I have read if you age the wine it becomes tastier.

[@PataCake]

No, you shouldn't keep it for months to age it. Since we're not using any preservatives in this recipe, if not stored properly, it could go bad. So why take the risk of this delicious wine getting spoilt? So I suggest you try and finish it in around 3 to 4 weeks.

[@joan66joshua]

Hi How do you clarify the wine

[@PataCake]

@@joan66joshua Joan, ginger wine remains cloudy even if you let it stand and settle for a month. But if you want the wine to be clear, you could do what they call 'fining'. A natural ingredient you could use for this ( instead of chemicals) is egg white. For this quantity, mix 1 tsp egg white with 2 tsp of water and stir it into the wine after the 7-day fermentation when you have to leave it to settle. But it would need at least 3 weeks for the egg white to pull most of the suspended substances down and form a sediment at the bottom and the wine much clearer than at the start.

[@ozzieosmonddmello6512]

I do not see any Hydrometer used, not have you taken the Gravity readings at the start of fermentation and at the end of it. Then how come you arrived at the ABV?

[@PataCake]

Ozzie, I apologise, but I'm not a professional brewer and don't have all the equipment you've mentioned. So yes, though I haven't measured the specific gravity, I'm making a guess based on research I did regarding wines made by others who've posted the ABV after a shorter fermentation period. I've given the approximate range of ABV for this wine.
